Lindstrom said he was. He’d been on television all day. When you live above
someone arrested in what has become one of the most notorious murder cases
in recent months, people come knocking on your door.

“I’ve seen more press today than I’ve seen in my life,” the 27-year-old
Lindstrom said. “All the sudden I’ve got Larry King calling me saying he
wants to talk.”

Lindstrom’s soon-to-be former neighbor is Myisha L. Ferrell. Sheriff’s
deputies charged 29-year-old woman on Sunday with felony obstructing justice
because she apparently interfered in the investigation of the disappearance
of Jessie Marie Davis.

They also said the investigation is continuing. Deputies and the FBI are
pursuing “leads developed through the investigation to identify any other
individuals who are found to have any involvement in the disappearance of
Jessie Davis.”

Officials charged Cutts with two counts of murder on Saturday for the death
of Davis and her unborn daughter, Chloe.

Davis’ body was found buried in a section of the Hampton Hills Metro Park,
which straddles the Akron-Cuyahoga Falls border in Summit County. The unborn
baby due on July 3 was inside her mother’s womb.

The Summit County Medical Examiner conducted an autopsy on Sunday and
positively identified the remains. A cause of death hasn’t been reported.

“The Summit County Medical Examiner’s office has positively identified the
remains found yesterday in the national park as those of Jessie Marie Davis,
the missing 26-year-old from Canton, Ohio,” the recording said. “Fetal
remains were also recovered. The cause and manner of death is listed as
pending while routine studies and investigations are performed.”

NATIONAL FOCUS

Davis became the focus of national news after she was reported missing on
June 15. Patty Porter, Davis’ mother, went looking for her daughter that
morning after not hearing from her since 9:30 p.m. on June 13.

Porter found her daughter’s bedroom in shambles and her 2-year-old son,
Blake, alone wearing a dirty diaper. Blake told his grandmother that Davis
had been crying and had broke a table. He also made the ominous statement,
“Mommy in rug.”

By June 18 the story of Davis’ disappearance was being reported nationwide.
Lindstrom wasn’t surprised by the attention he received on Sunday. The first
television crew actually arrived Saturday night, only a few hours after
sheriff’s deputies had searched Ferrell’s first-floor apartment at 1245
Oxford Ave. NW.

He wasn’t surprised by Ferrell’s arrest. Deputies first visited the
apartment building last Monday and had returned several times. They also
interviewed Ferrell last week.

“I knew that was coming,” Lindstrom said of the arrest. “They’ve been
looking to talk to her for a couple of days now.”

Ferrell wasn’t the best of neighbors. Lindstrom said she tended to have
parties and guests, often until early morning. But he didn’t know if Cutts
ever visited.

“The few experiences I had with her were negative,” Lindstrom said of
Ferrell, “so I did my best to avoid the next experience.”

The building’s landlord already had started an eviction process for Ferrell
through Canton Municipal Court. Records show Ferrell is well acquainted with
the eviction process.

Lindstrom calls Davis’s death heart-wrenching. “As soon as the media frenzy
ends, then they can rest,” he said.
